'Once upon a Time in Hollywood' is Quentin Tarantino's 9th movie, here's why it will be a landmark film for the auteur and his fans

Quentin Tarantino's upcoming film 'Once upon a Time in Hollywood' is the director's 9th film and he is expected to retire after he makes his 10th movie

It was back in 2012, when Quentin Tarantino was promoting his film 'Django Unchained,' that he spoke about retirement. He said at the time: "I just don’t want to be an old-man filmmaker. I want to stop at a certain point. Directors don’t get better as they get older. Usually, the worst films in their filmography are those last four at the end. I am all about my filmography, and one bad film f***s up three good ones... When directors get out-of-date, it’s not pretty. I’m on a journey that needs to have an end and not be about me trying to get another job. I want this artistic journey to have a climax."
